I know them, even use them in directories (see `.dir-locals.el'), instead of files. --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- ((org-mode . ((ispell-local-dictionary . "american") (time-stamp-format . "%:y-%02m-%02d") (time-stamp-start . "^#\\+DATE: +") (time-stamp-end . "$")))) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- BUT there is a *language specification* in the Org template: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- #+TITLE: Scorpios.org #+AUTHOR: Seb Vauban #+EMAIL: n...@one.com #+DATE: 2010-01-13 Wed #+DESCRIPTION: #+KEYWORDS: #+LANGUAGE: en --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- ^^ AND it is *used by Org* (at least for the HTML export, and for LaTeX as well I think -- or, in any case, it should use it). Thus, I try to avoid declaring which language is used in the buffer at two different spots, because we can change one and forget to change the other. Therefore, I would like to keep only one language declaration (the one of the Org template, in this case), and get Emacs follow it. Does this make sense?
